This movie is a 'found-footage' film about the Benson family who move in to the infamous house where the DeFeo family were murdered in the 1970s over 30 years earlier. Things start happening to anyone who visits this house, and whoever lives there. This is the footage retrieved from the camera.

Not even bad in a good way

Matialth

Good concept, poorly executed.

FirstWitch

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

Found footage videos have overstayed their welcome, in my opinion.I can't believe I forced myself to watch the whole damn thing!! This is probably to lamest film to date and I can't even applaud the effort.If the acting weren't so terrible, especially the dad and son characters, it might have earned a 2.Nothing scary or believable in this movie, whatsoever. Fast forward to the last 5 minutes and you'll be good.

This movie was awful. Not because it says "What you are about to see is real". It terribly fake and anyone who can read will know that. The end says "The time and location was unknown"...uh...they just posted right before "The following events took place between 3am and 4am" obviously in Amityville. Agreed that the in-yo-face camera of a bloody ghost made me jump a little it was a complete waste of time. I wouldn't bother watching it again and wish Hulu wouldn't count any rating of me watching it... Cheap scare. Watch the documentary instead; or the first or second movie.

First off this is one of those movies that you shouldn't take any notice of the poor reviews because i did & i didn't watch it for a long time because of the poor reviews & when i did watch it i was pleasantly surprised its by far not the worst found footage movie I've seen also its not the best far from it but given that it was probably made for £20 i think they did well with what they had,also you don't have to wait till the last half hour for something to happen so if you're like me & you're sick of trawling through the utter crap they call horror movies today you can do worse than to give The Amityville Haunting a go you to will probably be surprised as also i think its the best of the recent Amityville movies they seem to be pumping out.

If you want to see how not to make a good horror movie, watch this Amityville Haunting. If not, run away from it! The first bad thing is the found-footage option. OK it's easier to film that way when you don't have a lot of money to put in your movie, but here it's badly used.For example the kid explaining to the camera what he just filmed at the end of every sequences is annoying and useless, same thing for the screen turning suddenly black for some seconds during all the movie.Then the movie is full of "clichés" : The teenage girl is ALWAYS on her phone and ALWAYS in bad mood, the youngest sister of course have an "imaginary" friend that turns out to be a ghost, the parents don't believing anything supernatural happens when they know the past of the house and people are dying around them or closed doors open by themselves...And of course, the acting is bad. Most of the cast don't have a big experience so don't expect too much from them.Finally.... not a lot of stuff happens. Except some fast apparitions or off-screen deaths. You have to wait the very end to see something A LITTLE more interesting.So let this movie be a forgotten footage and don't try to find it. Really, it doesn't worth to waste your time on that.
